Mastopathia cystica chronica im Hinblick auf krebsige Entartung

Zusammenfassung Als Beitrag zur Frage eines Überganges der Cystenmamma in Carcinom werden in der vorliegenden Arbeit 381 Fälle mit klinisch einwandfrei cystischen Veränderungen der Brustdrüse aus der Chirurgischen Universitätsklinik Jena der Jahre 1920–1946 zusammengestellt unddie histologisch bewiesenen Fälle (169) zu Besprechungen herangezogen. Dabei zeigte sich, daßin 7,1% der Fälle die Mastopathia cystica einenKrebs oder krebsartige Veränderungen aufweist. Nach diesem Häufigkeitsverhältnis können wir diese Erkrankung nicht als Präcarcinomatose oder als Erkrankung, auf deren Boden sich ein Krebs prädisponiert entwickelt, ansprechen. Die Tatsache aber allein der Krebsentwicklung mahnt zur Vorsicht und weist die damit sich ergebende Behandlung, die kurz aufgezeichnet wird. Nachuntersuchungen und Anfragen bestätigen das gefundene Ergebnis.

Apheresis Technologies: An International Perspective

Abstract: The developments in apheresis techniques and their clinical applications world-wide are technologically driven. In the past, apheresis survey statistics have highlighted both the differences by region in clinical practice and in the types of technologies utilized. Such differences have provided a basis for the scientific and clinical assessments of these apheresis technologies and their clinical outcomes and have stimulated the marketing and business development of new technologies world-wide. A review of the regional practices and technologies utilized provides a perspective on the future role of apheresis and its developments in clinical practice. While technology is a driving force for the development of new techniques for clinical practice, it is not the only market force. For technology introduction, several other important issues need to be considered. Regulations at the local and, most importantly, the federal level impact the timing for new technology introduction. Reimbursement by healthcare payers is critically important from the initiation of the development of a technology through its clinical use. Clinical trials are critically important to show the safety and clinical- and cost-effectiveness of the technology in order for payers to provide reimbursement for its use, but these trials are sometimes long and costly. Research funding availability at the governmental and commercial levels critically impacts new technology investigation and its introduction. Apheresis technology developments offer new hopes and promises for the clinical team; however, their development, introduction, and utilization will be influenced by the prevailing market forces.     

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of gall stones: an in vitro comparison between an electrohydraulic and a piezoceramic device.

A comparative study of the effectiveness of two types of lithotripter in fragmenting gall bladder stones is reported. The machines used were a Piezolith 2300, which generates shock waves by the piezoceramic principle, and a Dornier MPL 9000, which produces the shock waves by underwater spark discharge. With each machine, corresponding stones of 45 pairs of weight and volume matched calculi (median volume 0.5 cm3, median diameter 10.5 mm) obtained at cholecystectomy were treated. All stones were successfully disintegrated (fragments smaller than 2 mm) with up to 5400 (median 628) shocks with the Piezolith and 3450 (median 428) shocks with the MPL 9000 lithotripters. With the Piezolith, operating at the highest power setting, a 1.65 fold median higher number of shocks was required for stone fragmentation than with the MPL 9000 at a medium power setting. Stone volume seemed to be the only determinant which affected ease of fragmentation; composition and density of the stones as assessed by computed tomography did not seem to be governing factors.     

Expression of cell-matrix molecules and integrin receptors in human liver grafts during chronic rejection

Abstract The inflammatory response of immune cells to target cells and cell-matrix molecules is regulated by several receptor-ligand molecules. As fibrosis develops in ongoing chronic rejection after liver transplantation, it is of interest to analyze patterns of integrin receptors and cell-matrix molecules in order to study the relation between immune cells and the stromal and parenchymal cells. In the present study, we demonstrated the expression of these molecules in chronic rejected human liver grafts using immunohistochemical techniques. The results showed a differential expression and induction of integrin receptors and cell-matrix molecules on resident liver cells, especially on sinusoids, reflecting a state of chronic inflammation and a specific interaction between integrin receptors and cell-matrix molecules. The patterns of induced integrin receptors on graft-infiltrating cells was closely related to the local production of cell-matrix molecules and reflected the final sequence of a stepwise progress of the inflammatory reaction.
